3GC Group: Meet the specialists in business communication offering end to end converged network solutions

“Convergence is a movement in technology to combine resources and applications onto one level platform for interoperability and optimization.”

It’s rare to find PBX and Physical Security VARs that have expertise in network infrastructure. On the flip side, most IT VAR’s are focused on standard software implementation or network hardware implementation. Neither type of company understands the nuances of the “Next Generation” Converged Network Technologies that combined both types of technologies into one solution bringing together traditionally disparate technologies and integrating them onto a core data network to ensure that it is optimized, reliable and secure. 3GC Group provides system design, implementation, integration, and management services for a complete end to end solution.

Their extraordinaire methodologies are: to discover innovative Converged Network Technologies that provide unique benefits to their clients, implement rigorous sales, project management and service management processes to optimize these technologies and also to focus on their operations to provide the highest customer satisfaction.

…and this is how their journey began
3GC Group was started in January 2003 as a result of enterprise businesses that were ill-served by the technology service providers who were inexperienced with the new “Converged Networks” movement. Starting off designing and implementing networks for calling card companies to leverage VoIP traffic into their services, 3GC pivoted to provide solutions to the commercial business sector in 2007. With clients from SMB up through mid-enterprise and large international multi-site organizations, 3GC has grown with their clients and today, providing LAN, WAN, carrier design, firewall, WiFi, UC, and core networking infrastructure all over the world. Over the last four years, 3GC group has added Converged Electronic Physical Security (CEPS) to its business solution line up which includes IP video surveillance, building access control, physical intrusion detection and emergency messaging with clients ranging from the public sector to the mid enterprise range.
